On January 18, Prime Minister Modi will meet with BJP workers of Varanasi

On January 18, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet with BJP members in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, the party said on Saturday.

After the Election Commission set the schedule for the elections to five state assemblies, including Uttar Pradesh, this will be Modi's first political event featuring party workers.

According to sources, it will most likely be a virtual engagement.

The BJP's Uttar Pradesh unit's Twitter account announced the program's schedule and encouraged people to submit ideas and suggestions for it via the NaMo app.

Because of the rising COVID-19 cases caused by the Omicron variation, the Election Commission has banned public meetings and roadshows until January 15, and will lay out its future recommendations later in the day on Saturday.
